Solution

The correct option is B you
The verb and its subject are always of the same person and number.

Option B is correct as "you" is the subject of the verb "were" and is also of the Second Person.

Option A is incorrect as "a time" is part pf the object of the main clause and not the subject of the verb.

Option C is incorrect as well. "Humble" is an adjective, not a noun nor the subject of the verb.

Option D is incorrect since the answer is B.
